"this……"
Wei Shuyu frowned and thought for a while.
After thinking for a long time, he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the court does not need to worry too much..."
"The countries in the Western Region are not fools."
"Until the Tang Dynasty decides the winner with Tuyuhun and Xue Yantuo, they cannot act rashly."
The ministers couldn't help but nodded.
indeed.
The Tang Dynasty is still the overlord.
Unless the Tang Dynasty showed signs of decline, those small countries would not dare to break up.
"I'm afraid something will change later!" Fang Xuanling said worriedly.
"It won't be too late."
Wei Shuyu smiled and said: "The Tang Dynasty is nearly 5,000 miles away from Yanqi, and it takes more than three months to travel without stopping."
"At least until he gets a clear answer from Datang, Yanqi's heart is still towards Datang."
The ministers discussed one after another, muttering about the feasibility of the matter.
"You mean that we only need to defeat Tuyuhun or Xue Yantuo within three months?" Li Shimin asked after pondering.
"That's right!"
Wei Shuyu nodded: "I can't guarantee Xue Yantuo."
"But Tuyuhun was led by Li Jing, and the Tubo besieged them, and Murong Shun caused trouble..."
"It can definitely be won!"
Um?
When Wei Shuyu said this, the officials immediately reacted.
Tuyuhun is indeed the easiest hole to break through.
Datang did not intend to attack Gaochang.
Instead, they stationed themselves nearby to give Yanqi the confidence to attack first.
"The war will be broken at once!"
Changsun Wuji stood up and said angrily: "What if Tuyuhun cannot be defeated within three months?"
"No need to break!"
Wei Shuyu smiled confidently: "As long as we suppress it, the countries in the Western Regions will not dare to move!"
"If anyone dares to do anything without permission, wait until the Tang Dynasty breaks through Tuyuhun..."
"It's time to settle accounts after the fall!"
"I wonder who in the small countries in the Western Region dares to tease the tiger's beard in our Tang Dynasty!"
Wei Shuyu's words were approved by the ministers, who all nodded while stroking their beards.
"What if Li Jing cannot suppress Tuyuhun?"
Wei Shuyu rolled his eyes.
"Old dog, Changsun, how do you know how to badmouth me?"
"If the Tang Dynasty couldn't even suppress Tuyuhun, how could it possibly dominate other countries?"
Well……
That makes damn sense.
Changsun Wuji's face turned red.
"okay."
Li Shimin nodded: "Pass the decree...Order Li Jing to attack Tuyuhun within three months."
"At least Tuyuhun must be suppressed from all directions!"
As Li Shimin finished speaking, the matter came to an end.
Out of reach.
During the expedition, we relied on the soldiers, and the court was responsible for coordinating the overall situation!
"Do you have anything else to report, dear sir?" Li Shimin asked again.
Wei Shuyu returned to his position.
He played everything that was supposed to be played the day before yesterday.
The only thing I can't make up my mind about is the issue of naturalization as a hidden household.
After thinking about it, Wei Shuyu decided to drag it on.
You have to pay taxes when you naturalize, which may not be a good thing for those who live in seclusion...
Let’s wait until the Tang Dynasty is not short of food to discuss this matter.
"Retreat!"
After discussing some matters, Li Shimin announced his resignation.
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, another five days passed, and it was the day of the chef competition.
Cuiyunju.
Lanterns and colorful decorations, huge crowds of people.
Today, Cuiyunju has gathered countless chefs to participate in the chef competition.
Not to mention the 100-guan reward.
Just the name of the first baker is enough to make them crazy.
"The Imperial Army, march out!"
The friends from the Imperial College held banners and lined up one by one with their heads held high.
As the military advisor of the Imperial Academy's army, Wu Qiqi must come to support him.
"Seventy-seven come out, one can stand up to two."
"Qiqi will definitely win and take first place!"
The friends shouted at the top of their lungs.
"Thank you all for coming to participate in the Chef Contest sponsored by Master Cui Shenji, Master Fang Yiai, and Master Qin Shandao!"
"The first place in the Chef Competition will receive a reward of 100 Guan, the second place will receive 50 Guan, and the third place will receive 20 Guan..."
The shopkeeper of Cuiyunju was dressed meticulously and announced the rules on the high platform.
Sanguo sat on the high platform and watched this scene happily.
"Remains, look at that big man's chest hair, it's really thick and thick. He is a butcher, not a baker, right?"
"That's nothing to you. Look at that contestant's sly eyebrows, and the big mole on his nose even has a hair growing on it."
"Well, I lost my appetite after watching it, so I got negative reviews!"
"Look at that little lady, she looks much prettier..."
The two goods are constantly making comments.
"Brother Jiji, brother Aiai..."
Qin Shandao suddenly interrupted: "Why haven't I seen Sister Qiqi after I've been looking for her for so long?"
Ga?
The two goods were immediately dumbfounded.
Looking around...
As expected, Wu Qiqi was not seen.
"Where is she?"
"It seems he hasn't come yet."
"Fuck."
"Fuck."
"Holy crap!"
"What to do?"
"Cold salad!"
royal palace.
Li Yuan walked out of the imperial study with eight-character steps, with a golden cane still hanging on his waist.
He looked so arrogant, as if he had just come out of Wanhua Pavilion.
"Wouldn't it be better if you agreed earlier? I have to sacrifice the golden cane!" Li Yuan snorted coldly, feeling indescribably proud.
Li Yuan wanted to leave the palace to participate in the chef competition.
Li Er won't let it go!
Then I can't give you a love education?
"Your Majesty, don't be complacent, it's almost too late." Wu Qiqi pulled Li Yuan's sleeve and ran away.
"Don't worry, at worst, I will have another contest!" Li Yuan said domineeringly.
Ever since I whipped the evil beast, my throat has become noisy.
"..."
Wu Qiqi was speechless: "The Supreme Emperor, you are paying a private visit incognito."
"Yeah?"
Li Yuan laughed and said, "It's okay. In my heart, your cooking skills are always the best."
"Remember to cook two more dishes tomorrow, I will deliver them to the evil beast!"
In the imperial study room.
Li Shimin covered his arms and his face turned blue and purple.
Got whipped again!
I was whipped again!
"Wang De!"
Li Shimin blushed and shouted.
"Slave...slave is here!" Wang De stepped forward cautiously.
"I want you to go to Da'an Palace..."
Li Shimin shouted sullenly.
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang De...
"Your Majesty, I don't dare."
Wang De knelt down with a plop and cried: "The Supreme Emperor is your father after all. This action is against the law and cannot be tolerated by heaven..."
Um?
Li Shimin was stunned.
I reacted quickly...
boom.
Li Shimin kicked Wang De to the ground.
"What are you thinking about? Am I that kind of person?"
Wang De knelt down.
Whispering in my heart...
Is not it?
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were both killed by you.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, forgive me."
Wang De knelt on the ground in fear: "This slave is stupid and does not understand His Majesty's holy will."
"I asked you to steal the golden cane!"
Li Shimin gritted his teeth.
As long as the golden cane is stolen, Li Yuan will not be able to beat himself.
And burned all the vines in his palace!
"ah?"
Wang De was speechless.
That's it.
That's easy...
As the chief eunuch.
Who dares not to listen to him and get killed?
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission!"
Wang De vowed to accept the order.
"Um."
Li Shimin nodded: "As long as you steal the golden cane, you won't need to clean the locker room or empty the bucket in the future."
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
The slave showed a look of death: "If I can't get the golden cane back, I'll come here with a bucket!"
"Um?"
Li Shimin frowned.
"Ah, no."
Wang De hurriedly changed his words: "If I can't get the golden cane back, I'll come here with my head raised!"
"Um."
Li Shimin nodded: "By the way, did your Gongtong fall down today?"
"..."
Can you please not mention this?
